After their recent sell out gig at Sheffield's Boardwalk, Chezzy indie rockers Mybe are back again, but this time they're doing it for the kids!!!!
On Saturday afternoon, anyone lucky enough to be under 18 will finally be able to catch an exclusive set from the band back at The Boardwalk.
The gig will be open to all ages as there will be a strictly no alcohol rule on the bar.
Singer Jim Pinder explained: "Although we had an amazing night when we last played at the Boardwalk, in May, we were a little disappointed to hear that lots of kids had been turned away because they were under 16.
"Obviously the venue couldn't do anything about it, as it's the law, but we thought maybe we could".
After speaking to The Boardwalk promoter, Chris Wilson, the band found it would be possible to put on an afternoon show that would be open to all ages.
"A safe environment is major priority with this gig," said bassist Ross Bannister. "We really want this gig to be a positive thing where kids can come down and just enjoy themselves.
"There'll be experienced security there to make sure that everyone is well taken care of. We've also managed to get ticket prices down to £2.00".
The audience will also be asked to get involved in the show. The band want the crowd to film them playing their future single 'Bring out the Blues' on their phones at the gig.
Once the footage from each phone has been sent to the band, it will be edited together and each "cameraman" will be credited. This will be the world's first video shot on mobile phones solely by fans.
The gig will take place at 12pm – 4pm on Saturday.
